Haunted Houses:
Nothing puts you in the Halloween mood like a creepy haunted house, and there is a pretty good selection of them here in St. Louis. Some of the most well-known haunted houses are located downtown in Soulard at Scarefest. The Darkness, Creepyworld and The Abyss are Scarefest’s most popular haunted houses. A $25.00 ticket price is fairly low, it is guaranteed to make you scream and jump. Head downtown to Scarefest to get a spook this Halloween season!

Fright Fest:
As soon as fall settles in around St. Louis, Fright Fest is number one on the to-do list of all things scary. Fright Fest is at Six Flags, and the park completely changes from its usually happy cartoon characters to ghosts and witches galore. The best part about Fright Fest is that the ticket grants access to the theme park, which includes most of the Haunted Houses and Scare Zones throughout the park. These screams and scares come with a bit of a cost, at $41.99. That is a bit pricy, but if you’re looking for a good scare, then you will get your money’s worth!
